    Life happens in the friction between the formal and the private; while families navigate the exhausting weight of inflation and complex bureaucracy, they find refuge in the rituals of hospitality. Respect is a choreographed dance of taarof, a complex etiquette of polite refusals and offers.

    ⚠️ Regional instability and internal civil unrest — data reflects latest available but conditions are volatile.

    Data shown reflects the most recent available historical records. On-the-ground conditions may have changed drastically. Always consult up-to-date humanitarian sources before making any decisions.
